ResultSet & setFetchSize fails to stop heap failures - Mailing list pgsql-jdbc

The resultset is a very large  set of rows  ( each row 2 ints and a
bunch of doubles ) .  I am unable to  convince jdbc to fetch one row at
a time, and avoid the heap failure.
Is there a way, or just a bug, or feature deficiency?

        String s = "Select tzids, tzide, latlonpoints from " + tableName;
        ResultSet rSet;
        try {
            Statement select = sqlConnection.createStatement(
ResultSet.TYPE_FORWARD_ONLY, ResultSet.CONCUR_READ_ONLY);
            select.setFetchSize( 1 );
            rSet = select.executeQuery(s);      <==========================
            rSet.setFetchSize(1);
        } catch ( Exception e ) { e.printStackTrace(); rSet = null; }
